During the investigation, it was revealed that several employees of this institution demanded amounts ranging from 4,000 to 5,000 soms from school and kindergarten directors. It is believed that this money was intended for an inspector from the Audit Chamber to conceal financial violations.
During a search in the office of one of the employees, operatives discovered 68,000 soms and a list containing 17 educational institutions in the city, with notes about the transfer of funds.
On March 12, 2026, the head of the Naryn city education department, T.U.S., was detained. The court ordered him to be placed in a temporary detention facility during the investigation. A criminal case has been initiated under Article 343, Part 1 (extortion of a bribe) of the Criminal Code of the Kyrgyz Republic.
The GKNB continues its work to identify other individuals involved in this corruption case.
The fight against corruption in the education sector remains an important task for the GKNB. Previously, the committee has repeatedly reported on the detention of officials for illegal collections and manipulations with budget funds allocated for the repair of educational institutions and the purchase of equipment.
